Ex-Pentagon chief Gates: Trump is ‘unfit,’ ‘beyond repair’

[ Editor’s note: In 1968 Trump was categorised 1Y by the draft board. 1Y is described as a ‘catch-all’ category, but it really meant ‘undesirable’; in reality it meant one thing – homosexual, and this was a time when being gay could exempt you from military service… Ian]

[ Editor’s note 2 : VT works to be as fair as possible on issues of race and gay lesbian crap but our look into Trumps history shows a man surrounded by buggerers, same as with “W,” who has used family wealth to buy the mantle of “ladies man.” As with “W,” another mindless maniac, I believe we have another “Nancyboy” on our hands, but behind that, as with Bush, something worse.

That Bush supporters, America’s closet ignorant and of all things, the moronic Christian right, back him…but it gets worse. The Nazis love him too, or can we call them the “Christian identity nutter,” perhaps for his love of Israel and his expressed willingness to kiss their heinies even more than others. Of course there shouldn’t be an election, the illustrious “professor emeritus” has stated that Hillary was replaced by an android.

I can state this, the alternative media is entirely Zionist controlled, far more than mainstream. Trump is unfit, and those drawn to read this and angered by it are unfit to live in America and sicken the rest of us… Gordon Duff ]

Former US defense secretary Robert Gates issued a sharp critique of both presidential candidates in the Wall Street Journal, but blasted Donald Trump as being “unqualified and unfit to be commander-in-chief.”

Gates – a Republican who was Pentagon chief under Republican George W. Bush and Democrat Barack Obama – has worked with eight presidents and is among the most widely respected US voices on national security matters.

“I believe Mr. Trump is beyond repair. He is stubbornly uninformed” and “temperamentally unsuited to lead our men and women in uniform,” Gates wrote in an op-ed piece posted late Friday on the Journal’s website. “He is unqualified and unfit to be commander-in-chief.”

Gates worked closely with Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state, and did not hold back on his criticism of her tenure.

A former CIA director, Gates said Clinton’s failure to predict the chaos that would follow Western intervention in Libya had raised credibility questions, as had her shifting position on the Iraq war.

Gates assailed Clinton’s opposition to a pending Asian trade agreement she once supported, said she had been vague on dealing with Vladimir Putin’s Russia, said she offered few specifics about North Korea, and had no clear strategy toward “a Middle East in flames.”

But on credibility, Gates added, “Trump is in a league of his own.”

“He has expressed support for building a wall between the US and Mexico; for torturing suspected terrorists and killing their families (and) for Mr. Putin’s dictatorial leadership.”

Trump had expressed support “for withdrawing US troops from Europe, South Korea and Japan,” while being “cavalier about the use of nuclear weapons.” He had insulted servicemen, their families and military leaders, Gates wrote.

Trump is “willfully ignorant” about the world, the US military and “about government itself,” Gates said.

While not saying he would vote for Clinton, Gates said he would be listening for reassurances from her ahead of the November 8 election.

“…those drawn to read this and angered by it are unfit to live in America and sicken the rest of us…”

It’s deja vu all over again. I was active in the movement against the war in Vietnam, and that’s the way that I was vilified. I was angered at the lies being foisted upon us, and I was denigrated as unfit to live in America and told to go live in Russia.

The thing that totally gives this article away as bullshit is the quote from Gates about Trump, “He has expressed support … for Mr. Putin’s dictatorial leadership.” That is quite a hoot, considering the fact that Putin is obviously against the banking cartel and Khazarian mafia.

Ian, this “Trump” thingy of yours (and Gordon’s) is really nowhere man. Trump is just the jester.

There is no smear against Trump which the illiterate hacks on VT could come up with, that would convince me that Trump could prove to be any worse than were every war mongering President of the USA since Kennedy. Their pitiful attempt to place a zombie into the White House is laughable. Who are they suggesting that the people should vote for? The American Freedom Party perhaps, if so why does Greenhouse not tell us. That way we would have a better idea of where he himself stands.

Proverbs 6:16-19. “There are six things that God hates, and seven that he abhors: a haughty look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that weaves wicked plots, feet that hurry to do evil, a false witness who lies with every breath, and one who sows dissension among brothers.”

“Well, I don’t think Gates understands,” Trump told CNN’s Wolfy Blitzensten. “I mean he was also very disloyal to numerous people that he worked for. I don’t like people to go out and write books and criticize everything. I don’t think he understands, and I don’t think he understands the word loyalty,” Trump said. ” And, frankly, I really believe I understand it much better than he does.”
